Setting boundaries is so important and these critters have mastered the art of protecting their space and their possessions, especially when it comes to assets like pizza and ice cream, or even (like in the case of the vampire bat) blood!

Varnishing my 8x10 oil painting for @cactusgallery annual group show, LOTERÍA XII, Opens online July 18, 2026! I had the El Pino card 🌲. I went a bit old school with this painting giving it a very spiritual vibe. Pine trees often symbolize hope, renewal, and spiritual growth in many traditions. Something that I feel many of us need. So I dove right in without drawing any concepts, and start painting from what I see and feel from the shapes that I got from setting up the back tone. #loteria #pinetree #oilpainting #spiritualgrowth #cactusgalleryla taken in Cactus Gallery by @patricktha1

Growing up my mom would make pizza almost every Saturday, two pizzas usually because friends loved it too. It was an ‘easy’ meal and it was often little Sandrita’s job to layer the ham, black olives and LOTS of cheese on the pizza pie. I have continued the pizza life and make pizza once or twice a month here at the Casa Linda. Alfonso likes to barbecue so sometimes grilled chicken or shrimp make it to the pizza! YUM!!!

You know who else loves pizza? Pigeons, raccoons, and also cats! Here are three new works by artists @sarah.r0se.arts , @chrystal.dawn.art and @patricktha1 🔴. These pie loving animals are part of our upcoming show, ‘Get Your Own…!’ which opens online tomorrow Saturday, June 20 at 12p PT at the link in bio.

https://cactusgalleryla.com/collections/get-your-own-2026

‘Get Your Own...!’ features @kahlapaints and 19 artist friends from different parts of the US who have created art featuring critters big and small with their food fights and culinary obsessions.

Los Angeles area art folks are welcome to see the show in person by appointment. For previews, questions etc, email Sandra Mastroianni sandra@cactusgalleryla.
